An Elizabeth Academy Education
Embracing children of diverse abilities from infancy through 8th grade, preparing them for life using the Montessori method and solid Values, including: Inclusivity, Honesty, Kindness, and Commitment.
We truly “See the Child and Seek the Light” of higher learning and expectations, guiding them to reach their goals and become confident, caring contributors to their community, leading meaningful lives.
Starting with Montessori
The Montessori approach to learning has benefited a wide variety of learners for over one hundred years. Developed by Dr. Maria Montessori, today this educational model is helping young people achieve success in learning and in life.
Order
Intentionally designed classrooms and daily routines.
Concentration
Developmentally appropriate works for all abilities.
Independence
Individualized lessons to promote self-learning.
Inclusive Education
The term inclusion captures, in one word, an all-embracing societal ideology. It secures opportunities for a small group of students with disabilities to learn alongside their non-disabled peers and it allows for tremendous leadership growth opportunities for typical and advanced students in the same classroom.
Every Child Belongs
Support for Students with Disabilities
Leadership Growth for All
Continued Through 8th Grade
“Valorization” is the term Maria Montessori uses to describe when an adolescent is in search of personal identity—internalizing core values, then emerging with integrity and confidence and identifying as a worthy person.
Personalized Enrichments & Electives
Including arts, experiential learning, concurrent college courses, and more, our enrichment opportunities inspire students to engage with the world and pursue individual interests and goals.
Visual Arts
Classroom concepts are deeply embedded, coming alive as they blossom on a canvas or are sculpted in clay. Creativity explodes, finding root in core concepts taught in our Visual Arts Enrichments.
Music
Music Enrichments awaken and enliven the mind and heart in myriad ways, opening neuro-pathways to language and expression, math and sciences, as well as social/emotional connection.
Dance
We use the whole body in our Dance Enrichments to feel classroom concepts down to the bone. Through dance we gain confidence, learn more about culture, community and feel freedom of spirit.
Theatre
Theatre is a culminating arts experience. Through Theatre and Film Electives, academic themes taught in Humanities, STEM and the other arts find expression in a community performance.
Caring Teachers in a Flexible Classroom Environment
Our teachers truly care for every student. Lead teachers have MACTE-accredited Montessori certificates—the international standard setting and accrediting body for Montessori education.
